Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Sarah Ferguson have just days left in their Royal Lodge home before they face their inevitable eviction.
The former prince was forced to relinquish his lease on the Windsor home after being stripped of his titles, due to his association with billionaire paedophile Jeffrey Epstein . With Andrew set to relocate to the Kings Sandringham estate in Norfolk, Fergie has been left struggling to find her own accommodation options.
At first, it was believed the former Duchess would move in with one of her daughters, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, but it has now been reported that this will not be a permanent solution.
Beatrice lives in the Cotswolds while Eugenie splits her time between Kensington Palace and a Portuguese villa, so neither can give their mother a permanent roof over her head. After living in the Grade II-listed mansion Royal Lodge since 2008, a friend of Sarahs told the Daily Mail that she will have to "lower her expectations" about the standard of her next home.
The friend added that Fergie "would prefer to stay in the Windsor area". Ms Ferguson is said to be in "a fragile state" with an insider saying: "She's really not sure what the future holds," adding that recent events were not good for my mental health.
The Times has also reported that given the turbulent relationship between Andrew, Fergie and their daughters, living together would not be a good idea while they are all but estranged. A source told the publication: Relations are warmer between Ferguson and the couples daughters, but no offer of permanent accommodation has been extended to their mother.
"For now, Andrew and Sarah have a housing crisis. It may mean that they have to lower their expectations about the sort of lifestyle they wish to lead.
Andrew is reportedly moving into the five-bedroom home of Marsh Farm, which is currently undergoing renovations to prepare for the former princes impending arrival. In the last weeks, workmen have been seen at the site installing extra security measures, with Sky technicians also seeming to install broadband.
The disgraced royal went to tour the home last week, and was reportedly less than impressed with his new home. A source told The Sun : "It was the first time he's seen his new house, and he is resigned to the fact that this is his future. He's come to the conclusion that he has to get on with the rest of his life and accepts he has to make the best of it."
Until the renovation works are complete, it is believed he will occupy a smaller house on the Sandringham estate. The property sits approximately two miles from Sandringham's main residence, and authorities extended the estate's drone prohibition zone in December to encompass Marsh Farm.
According to The Times , wherever Andrew moves on the Sandringham estate, he will have family and friends close by. They said: He has a few loyal friends and some sources close to the royal family suspect that Charless steely approach may have been too tough.
Wherever Andrew ends up, Fergie will not be coming with him as she still works to secure a permanent housing option, as her exile from public life continues in the wake of the Epstein scandal.
约克公爵夫人被逐出皇家别墅后仍在艰难寻找住所,一位知情人士透露她将被迫改变生活方式安德鲁·蒙巴顿-温莎和莎拉·弗格森在皇家别墅的居住时日已所剩无几,即将面临不可避免的搬离。
这位前王子因与亿万富翁恋童癖者杰弗里·爱泼斯坦有关联而被剥夺头衔后,被迫放弃温莎住宅的租约。随着安德鲁王子计划迁至诺福克郡的国王桑德灵厄姆庄园,菲姬(莎拉·弗格森)正艰难地为自己寻找新的住所。
起初,人们认为这位前公爵夫人会搬去与她的女儿之一——比阿特丽斯公主或尤金妮公主同住,但最新消息称这并非长久之计。
比阿特丽斯居住在科茨沃尔德,而尤金妮则往返于肯辛顿宫和葡萄牙别墅之间,因此两人都无法为母亲提供长期住所。自2008年起,莎拉一直居住在被列为二级保护建筑的皇家别墅中,但据其友人向《每日邮报》透露,她将不得不"降低期望",以适应当下居所的标准。
友人补充称,弗格森(Fergie)"更愿意留在温莎地区"。据知情人士透露,弗格森女士目前处于"脆弱状态",并表示:"她真的不确定未来会怎样",还提到近期事件"对我的心理健康不利"。
《泰晤士报》还报道称,鉴于安德鲁、弗ergie与女儿们关系紧张,几乎形同陌路,同住并非明智之举。有消息人士向该报透露:"弗ergie与这对夫妇的女儿们关系较为融洽,但她们尚未向母亲提供长期住所的邀请。"
眼下,安德鲁和莎拉正面临住房危机。这可能意味着他们不得不降低对理想生活方式的期望。
据报道,安德鲁王子即将入住马什农场的五居室住宅,该住宅目前正在进行翻修,以迎接这位前王子的到来。过去几周,工人们被看到在现场安装额外的安全措施,天空公司的技术人员似乎也在安装宽带。
这位失势的王室成员上周参观了新居,但据报道他对新住所并不满意。消息人士向《太阳报》透露:"这是他第一次看到自己的新房子,他无奈地接受了这就是他的未来。他得出结论,必须继续自己的生活,并接受现实,尽力而为。"
据信,在装修工程完成前,他将暂住在桑德灵厄姆庄园内的一栋较小住宅中。该房产距离庄园主楼约两英里,当局已于去年12月将庄园的无人机禁飞区扩大至涵盖马什农场。
据《泰晤士报》报道,安德鲁在桑德灵厄姆庄园无论搬到哪里,都会有家人和朋友陪伴在侧。消息人士称:“他有一些忠诚的朋友,而部分王室内部人士认为,查尔斯采取的强硬手段可能过于严苛。”
无论安德鲁最终落脚何处,弗ergie都不会随行——在爱泼斯坦丑闻后,她仍持续远离公众视野,目前正致力于寻找稳定的居所。
